Takes an intersectional approach in textually analysing representations of two minority female lead characters in animated children’s television. Covers their gendered representation through their character roles, relationships with other characters and intersectionality. Some specific linguistic analysis but largely contextual. This study would be useful for those who want to consider influences of race and class into their research into language and gender representations in animation, although it is lacking in detailed linguistic analysis.
